My Mom went to a McDonalds by her work to get lunch this morning and this is what the cashier offered her
Apparently, while my Mom was waiting for her order to come through, the cashier all of a sudden stuck up her hand with the silver dollar in her hand and said, "Does anybody want this?" After a few seconds of thinking about it (I know, shoulda dove for it as soon as she saw it) my Mom walked over and said "One dollar coin, right? Only want one dollar for it?"
"Yup."
As she was walking away from the cashier with her food some raggedy looking guy asked, "Is that a silver dollar? Can I look at it?"
"No, its one of those Bicentenial dollars." And she didn't let him touch it.
Funny thing was, she didn't realize it was a silver dollar until she got back to her school and one of her coworkers told her to read what it said on the reverse. DUH!!!!
So, today's score, thanks to Mom's quick action is 1 oz of silver. WOOOOOTT!!!
This experience just goes to show that anything can happen while you are buying a large fry. Of course, it helps when the cashier practically waves the coin in front of your eye.
Keep your eyes open for the silver everyone... it can come from anywhere!
Unfortuantely for me, she is keeping it for now.
